When being charged with a sex crime, a lawyer must work even harder to make sure the accused’s rights are protected.
LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, October 23, 2017 /EINPresswire.com/ -- “Even just being accused of a sex crime can ruin a person’s life,” said Los Angeles criminal defense attorney Arash Hashemi. “Our society views sex crimes as one of the worst offenses. A solid, well-planned defense is vital to protect a person’s good name, reputation, future and assets.”The process starts when a person is under investigation. If a person is just a “suspect” they should hire an attorney immediately.
“Of course the first thing to do is to exercise your right to remain silent. In order to do this you must actually speak and say ‘I want to exercise my right and remain silent.’ That way the police must stop questioning you without an attorney present.”
Then, let the attorney deal with bail, the courts and hearings. The person accused of the crime has enough to worry about dealing with the ramifications of just being charged.
“Sadly, a lot of people are going to assume guilt even before the case goes to trial. That’s wrong, but it’s human nature. As a defense attorney, I am going to put all my efforts toward getting the charges dismissed. If we have to go to court, I will work to see that you are found not guilty,” sais Arash Hashemi.
